She is representing herself, but the article does mention that there was no evidence that the welfare of her children was in danger while under her care. She has a fairly strong case, but she should probably not represent herself. Clearly she isn't leaving with 700 trillion, but its fairly clear that her children were taken away from her because she was perceived as weird rather than a actually posing a thread to her children.
To her credit, her kids skin may have been darker from radiation. This is actually extremely common. Solar radiation does darken the skin, its called a tan. Maybe she was just worried about skin cancer. But yeah, 900 trillion could by a lot more than the state of new York. The net worth of all the people in the world is probably less than $20 trillion. You could probably purchase all property on the planet and still not make much of a dent in $900 tillion.
Maybe she will settle for a deed to Staten Island itself... /s However, I do agree if they really did do what she said and she can previous, that would be at least a few million... Though there is no justification for the amount she is asking for unless she really is crazy... Then again taking a mother kids from them for no good reason can drive a mother crazy.
I would just sue for the jobs, homes, and personal possessions of everyone involved such that they became homeless and had to give up their kids to foster care just so they would have shelter.
THAT is justice (assuming she has a legitimate case, if not, she can f**k off).
I'm sure 900 trillion dollars will not be enough if something like that happens...I am not mocking over the fact that she sued those guys but I guess you have not understood the pun intended in the question.

I'd love to hear her lawyer's justification for filing this. It should be good.

Asking for a dollar amount like that is doing nothing but trying to make headlines. Unfortunately, it worked.

Easy. She'll get $10 of it, the rest will go to legal fees. What more justification do you need?

how the hell she thought of such an amount???

Suppose your children were taken from you for 3 or 4 years for no good reason, how would you value that time?

$900 trillion !!! Near about total earth economy

I hope she wins!

Just playing the odds. She took a reasonable compensation amount, like $9,000, and divided by her chance of winning the case.

That was clever... I lol'd.

If you combined the money supply of the entire world, you wouldn't even come close to that amount.

oh wow that's a lot of money! i think she has a good point, but im sure there is no way she would go home with $900 trillion.
